摘要

Permeable pavements are an essential component of green infrastructure for urban stormwater management, yet their long-term durability in cold climates remains a major challenge. This study evaluates the freeze–thaw durability and service-life prediction of permeable concrete incorporating recycled steel slag aggregate under unclogged and clogged conditions using laboratory testing and two predictive frameworks. The Dynamic Elastic Modulus Decay Model and the Cumulative Damage Model were calibrated using measured relative dynamic elastic modulus data. Experimental results revealed that clogging accelerated deterioration, accelerating deterioration and reducing predicted service life from 7.36–6.78 years (unclogged condition) to 5.44–5.28 years (clogged condition). The cumulative damage model demonstrated superior predictive accuracy ( R 2 = 0.982 $R^{2}=0.982$ ) compared to the modulus decay model ( R 2 = 0.956 $R^{2}=0.956$ ) By linking laboratory durability data with service life forecasting, this research provides a laboratory-validated framework for the planning, design, and maintenance of resilient sponge city pavements. The findings contribute to climate adaptation strategies for cold-region urban environments and promote the sustainable use of industrial by-products in construction materials.
